Ive read from other women that they have suffered permanent damage as a result of botox or dysport. Is this true? Im very concerned as after dysport I now have a lazy left eye along with a prominent tear trough, my eyes look smaller and piggy like plus my cheeks are slightly dented. It has been 3 weeks now!!

Answer: Permanent Damage from Dysport?
Hi Eliza. We have not heard of nor experienced the kind of "permanent damage" you are describing with Dysport and Botox. What exactly did they say that was permanent?
As for your case, the lazy left eye is a possible side effect (ptosis) but normally is gone very quickly within 4-6 weeks. The other concerns you point out would have to be addressed in person as they do not sound consistent with side effects from a bad Botox injection.

Answer: Temporary effects of cosmetic botulinum toxins Botox, Dysport and Xeomin
We have performed over 10,000 treatments of botulinum toxin injections in our clinic. We have not yet seen any permanent or long term effects. The biochemistry data shows conclusively that the effects are temporary. When injected properly into muscles by a doctor who understands the anatomy of the facial muscles, the results are typically excellent with over 95% satisfaction.
